Low-flying RAF fighter jets have killed a cow, injured horses and shattered windows in Scotland.

The MoD has paid out £177,000 in compensation as a result of 47 incidents across the UK over the last three years.

A cow killed in Dumfries and Galloway cost the military £5049, according to newly-released figures, while two horses injured by RAF Tornados in the Scottish Borders and Dumfries and Galloway cost £163.

Low-flying planes are unlikely to hit livestock but the noise can cause them to panic and hurt themselves.

Damage to a car in Edinburgh caused by a Typhoon totalled £3500, while a broken window in Wester Ross cost £300.

A spokesman for the MoD said: "We take the issue of safe low-flying extremely seriously and understand that low-flying can be noisy and unpopular, but it is an essential part of operational training.

"The MoD is constantly striving to ensure that such disturbance is kept to an absolute minimum and that the burden of noise pollution is as evenly distributed as possible throughout the UK."
